Responsibilities

- Drive global AI transformation.
- The Grafana SDR function is building an AI-native workflow layer: account research, persona research, list building, and personalized outbound, systematized from the output of our best SDRs.
- Be a practitioner voice in that build, shaping the workflows, deploying them globally, and holding the standard across EMEA and APAC alongside regional peers.
- Build the future bench.
- Build the system that develops people, not just pipeline.
- Run structured development cycles through your managers, create clear progression paths, and measure success by how many SDRs earn their way into AE roles.
- Partner with AE leadership to make that transition real, and use it as a talent brand, because the best SDR candidates choose orgs where the next step is visible.
- Own the operational numbers.
